We have despatched chassis 35-PK and 93-NK. to Barkers today by train. We should be pleased to hear from you the Nos. of other chassis which are being allotted for E.A.C-3. We should like the next chassis fitted with covered bodies. For our tests we should like covered bodies with the maximum amount of weight on the rough which you are ever likely to use. We suggest therefore that the next chassis should be fitted with a Pullman limousine or a Limousine Coupe. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
